PRISON FOR MAN WHO STOLE FROM WARWICK LANES CTS Prison for man who stole from Warwick Lanes A 22-year-old Devonshire man who stole $1,255 from the Warwick Lanes Bowling Alley, was sentenced to nine months in prison in Magistrates' Court yesterday.

Vaughn Edwards, of Loyal Hill Road, pleaded guilty to breaking and entering the the bowling alley, and wilfully and unlawfully damaging a safe.

Police prosecutor Sgt. Kenrick James told the court that on December 24, 1993, at 1.30 a.m., an employee of the bowling alley locked and secured the doors and windows. And at 7.15 a.m. he noticed that the building had been broken into.

"The locking device on the back door was broken and the office door had been attacked. Once inside, Edwards and another man not before the court, used a saw to open a large safe, which resulted in $1,000 worth of damage, and stole $1,155 in cash and coins.'' Sgt. James added that the men then entered the kitchen and stole $100 from a cabinet.

"As a result of information received, Edwards was arrested and questioned about the theft. He admitted the offence but would not tell Police who his accomplice was.'' When asked by Police what became of the money, Edwards said he and the other person divided it up among them. He used his share for food and marijuana.

Sgt. James also told the court that Edwards had previous convictions of a similar nature.

Magistrate the Wor. Edward King sentenced Edwards to nine months in prison for breaking and entering and nine months in prison for damaging a safe. The charges will run concurrently.
